Virus forces Japan to cancel ceremony to mark tsunami

No, not "forces", makes intelligent choice to cancel! No one will forget the tragedy, and all will remember and commemorate in their own way!

It is quite sad this important ceremony is cancelled.

I hope the whole world remembers! This disaster was horrific, but by no means is it just peculiar to the shores of Japan; USA, Indonesia, PNG, Sourh America, NZ, Fiji, Australia etc all run the risk of massive off shore quakes causing a huge tsunami, especially since we appear to be in an era of major quakes across the globe.

Of course, the nuclear reactors caused another disaster that continues to threaten Japan and the ocean sea life.

Those reactors need to be encased like the Russians did at Chernobyl, if that is at all possible, for just pumping seawater on them, then allowing that radioactive water to flow into the ocean is having a devastating affect.
